Hank Fall 2016

Creating a better workplace turns cynics into champions of unit-based teams. UBTs help workers, managers and physicians better serve Kaiser Permanente members and patients.

Plus: "Meet Your National Agreement," puzzles and games and great comics that will help everyone realize they are part of your UBT.
